The King's School
A small Christian independent school in Hampshire, The King's School educates around 236 mixed pupils from the early years through to GCSE. With a roll of this size, classes are intimate and pupils are well known to staff, which suits families looking for a close, personal community rather than a large institution. The Independent Schools Inspectorate judged the school "good" overall, while singling out personal development as "excellent" - a strong indicator of the pastoral care on offer.
Where every mark matters.
Places are limited and demand is high, so exam performance is what sets candidates apart. Passmate turns the months ahead into ten focused minutes a day on the exact topics this school tests.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, faith-rooted school where pupils are noticed and pastoral care shines. A natural fit for families who value community and character alongside GCSE study.
That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.
Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
